Chapter 199: Invitation
Chapter 199: Invitation
On the grass in the Origin Space, Qin Yi was soaked in sweat. After a long time, she suddenly opened her eyes, the pair of phoenix eyes glowing like the brightest stars in the night sky.
Stardusts were bright but they couldn’t be compared to her phoenix eyes.
When Qin Yi felt the boiling power within her, she moved her hands. Her ability had returned, putting her at ease.
Qin Yi touched Xiao Lan, who was also soaking wet, and her heart ached slightly. Xiao Lan had suffered quite a bit by helping her seal her injury, so much so that the little guy fell asleep due exhaustion.
After getting out of the Origin Space, Qin Yi gave Xiao Lan a bath and blow-dried its beautiful blue hair, then placed him on the bed and let him rest. After that, she walked into the bathroom and took a shower.
After Qin Yi dried her hair, she heard some noises coming from downstairs – it was probably Yun Huan and the others returning.
Qin Yi went downstairs and indeed, it was Yun Huan and the four people who had gone out in the morning. Behind them, Qin Yi realized that there were two more people, Zhang Hui and Lan Xiang.
Wang Wenwen came downstairs due to the noises too and when she saw Qin Yi at the stairs, she went over curiously, “Prince Charming, what’s going on?”
Seeing Zhang Hui and Lan Xiang, Wang Wenwen was slightly surprised. She recognized that as the survivors who had returned with them a few days ago but why were they here now? If she remembered correctly, Yun Huan hated other people coming here.
Qin Yi smiled, “Who knows? Let’s go down.”
Qin Yi knew in her heart that Yun Huan and the others couldn’t wait any longer, and after they found out about Zhang Hui, they had “invited” her over eagerly.
But it was better to keep the matter from this little girl. Ever since she had been injured accidentally by Chu Mohe, the girl had been colder towards Yun Huan and the others. Qin Yi knew that she was inflicting revenge on them in her own way.
Wang Wenwen followed Qin Yi obediently, not understanding Yun Huan’s actions.
Lan Xiang followed Zhang Hui, envious when she saw such a luxurious house. When she thought about the little house they were living in, Lan Xiang’s eyes turned gloomy.
Zhang Hui was slightly uneasy at this moment. When she went to the streets today, these five people were looking for her, saying that they wanted to treat her to a meal, to thank her for telling them about Chuchu. She initially didn’t want to go but she couldn’t tolerate Lan Xiang’s coaxing and pestering, so she agreed.
But when she entered this villa, she became even more uneasy, her eyelids constantly twitching.
“Captain Yun, Lan Xiang and I better get going. Telling you guys about Chuchu was no trouble at all, you don’t have to treat us to a meal,” Zhang Hui still indicated her intention to leave in the end.
Lan Xiang gave Zhang Hui a disgruntled look, thinking, ‘Does this old woman even know what she’s talking about?’
They could see how wealthy Yun Huan’s team was and there would be a lot of good food here for sure. They had eaten plain, dry biscuits for days and Lan Xiang couldn’t take it anymore, so when Lin Bai extended an invitation for dinner to them, she agreed without hesitation.
Zhang Hui didn’t see Lan Xiang’s dissatisfaction, and not waiting for Yun Huan and the others to answer, she simply pulled Lan Xiang’s hand and walked towards the door.
When she turned her head, she realized that Lin Qing had already locked the door. He leaned against the door slightly, a subtle smile in his foxy eyes, “How could you just leave like that? We haven’t even treated you guys to a meal, eh?”
Lin Bai’s smile was still very warm, like an elegant gentleman, but it made Zhang Hui apprehensive for some reason.
Lan Xiang came to her senses at this moment as well, guessing that this group of people were probably doing this for Chuchu. With that thought, Lan Xiang calmed herself down and smiled faintly.
“I don’t know what you guys mean by this but we’re not having this meal. Please let us leave.”
